Nor can they tow unless you get a custom hitch installed, I think.

Not to mention they get maybe 12mpg?
They are about the same in cost. I have seen them as cheap as $19K and I did say I would have some bill payed off buy sell it. All I want is to have is a car and house payment and there mpg is not that bad.

The idea of selling the Evo seems to be very flawed. You'll either get a RX-7 thats way less practical, breaks more often, and requires a lot more maintenance, or you'll get some big powerful SUV that requires an on-call tanker to drive around town.
I know that no one knows this but I HAVE NOT DRIVEN MY CAR FOR MORE THEN A WEEK cent's I have own it. All I have been doing is fixing it so that in is self make me mad for buying this evo. I got burned on it. Thats why I was thinking of sell it. If I did a rx7 again it would not be my DD and it would not have the rotary in it. My old lt1 fc was the most reliable I have ever had.
